Overall it was a very smooth process, I had 2 interviews. Everyone is welcoming but a long process for onboarding took about two-three months since interviews. Although it may just be a university wide issue but personally from the department I am working in.
only a conversation with the professor who you are going to work with. Gave a problem set. no time limits but requre to finish it asap. overall good experience. lovely and friendly.
The interview was fair, somewhat difficult. There was a three person search committee. It was mostly a technical interview. All questions were asked specifically about expertise related to the position.
